Regency Free to Pursue Monetization of Security Land Asset Tuesday April 22, 5:28 pm ET

JENSEN BEACH, Fla., April 22 /PRNewswire/ -- Regency Affiliates, Inc.
(OTC Bulletin Board: RAFI - News) announced today that the Court in the action entitled Gatz et al. v. Ponsoldt, Sr., et al. pending in the Federal District Court for the District of Nebraska, in which Regency is a defendant, denied plaintiffs' motion for a temporary restraining order with respect to a proposed loan to Security Land and Development Company Limited Partnership and held in abeyance plaintiffs' motion for a preliminary injunction with respect to Regency's use of proceeds of such loan.

Regency is a limited partner in Security Land, a Maryland limited partnership that owns a two story office building and connected six story tower that is leased to the General Services Administration of the United States Government through October 2018 and occupied by the Social Security Administration of the United States Government. Regency is also a limited partner in 1500 Woodlawn Limited Partnership, the general partner of Security Land.

Under the terms of the Eighth Amendment to the Security Land partnership agreement, the net proceeds of a "qualified financing" to Security Land would be distributed to Regency and the non-Regency partners on a 50/50 basis, provided that such allocation would result in a minimum distribution to Regency of $39,000,000 (a "qualified financing"). The amendment also provides that, following a qualified financing, Regency will be entitled to (i) 95% of Security Land's distributions of cash flow until it has received $2,000,000 of such distributions, and thereafter 50% of such distributions, (ii) once it has received $2,000,000 of cash flow distributions, a $180,000 annual management fee and (iii) a 50% interest in all other distributions from Security Land. The foregoing percentages are inclusive of Regency's interest as a limited partner in 1500 Woodlawn. The Eighth Amendment, which is being held in escrow pending consummation of a qualified financing, will not become effective if a qualified financing is not consummated on or prior to August 5, 2003.

While there can be no assurance that a qualified financing will be consummated, the general partner of Security Land has informed Regency that it is negotiating the terms of a new loan for the Partnership that would constitute a qualified financing, and that it intends to consummate the qualified financing as soon as possible.

The plaintiffs in the Nebraska action sought a temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction with respect to the proposed qualified financing and Regency's use of the proceeds of the qualified financing following notice that the general partner of Security Land intended to consummate the qualified financing as soon as possible. Regency understands that the plaintiffs intend to proceed with their motion for a preliminary injunction seeking to enjoin Regency from paying certain accrued obligations to Regency's prior and current management and Regency's prior and current controlling shareholders. Plaintiffs were granted permission by the Court to conduct certain depositions within the next 45 days in connection with their continuing pursuit of a preliminary injunction, after which the Court would determine whether to schedule a hearing. Regency intends to oppose any effort by plaintiffs to interfere with Regency's use of proceeds of the proposed qualified financing.

JENSEN BEACH, Fla., April 8 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Regency Affiliates, Inc.

The General Services Administration recently agreed to extend the term of its lease for the property through October 2018.

Regency Affiliates is a limited partner in Security Land and a limited partner in 1500 Woodlawn Limited Partnership, the general partner of Security Land. Under the amendment entered into today, the net proceeds of a loan to Security Land will be distributed to Regency and the non-Regency partners on a 50/50 basis, provided that such allocation would result in a minimum distribution to Regency of $39,000,000 (a "qualified financing"). The amendment also provides that, following a qualified financing, Regency will be entitled to (i) 95% of Security Land's distributions of cash flow until it has received $2,000,000 of such distributions, and thereafter 50% of such distributions, (ii) once it has received $2,000,000 of cash flow distributions, a $180,000 annual management fee and (iii) a 50% interest in all other distributions from Security Land. The foregoing percentages are inclusive of Regency's interest as a limited partner in 1500 Woodlawn.

The amendment, which is being held in escrow pending consummation of a qualified financing, will not become effective if a qualified financing is not consummated on or prior to August 5, 2003. Regency's existing rights under the Security Land partnership agreement remain unchanged by the amendment unless and until the amendment becomes effective.

While there can be no assurance that a qualified financing will be consummated, the general partner of Security Land has informed Regency that it is negotiating the terms of a new loan for the Partnership that would constitute a qualified financing, and that it intends to consummate the qualified financing as soon as possible.

Regency is a defendant in an action entitled Gatz et al. v. Ponsoldt, Sr., et al. pending in the Federal District Court for the District of Nebraska. In connection with a motion by the plaintiffs in the action seeking to enjoin the "monetization" of the Security Land asset, an Order was entered upon Regency's agreement to give plaintiffs ten-days' notice of any such monetization. In light of the foregoing, Regency today delivered notice of the prospective qualified financing. Regency intends to oppose any effort by plaintiffs to interfere with the prospective qualified financing.
